Chef Infra Client 16.5 introduced performance enhancements to Ruby library loading. Due to the underlying implementation of Ruby’s .to_yaml method, it does not automatically load the yaml library and YAML.dump() should be used instead to properly load the yaml library.

Examples

incorrect

{"foo" => "bar"}.to_yaml

correct

YAML.dump({"foo" => "bar"})
